[{"type":"text","content":"July 23, 2020 - TheNewswire - London, Ontario - Goldseek Resources Inc. (CSE:GSK) (CNSX:GSK.CN) (\"Goldseek\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that the planning of Phase 1 exploration at the Quevillon West Property is now complete and the work program is expected to begin before the end of July 2020. The Company decided that a systematic till and boulder sampling program was the best way to assess the Property's many targets, which are shown below. The Company also did a new interpretation of the surface overburden cover, using air-photos along with satellite and LIDAR imagery, which allowed planning of the till sampling survey. It will be the first time in the Property area that a systematic and regional scale sampling survey will be performed. This is possible due to the consolidation of this large property, while previous ownerships focused on small portions of these targets. The Quevillon West Property is currently made up of 497 claims, covering approximately 27,156.69 hectares (271.55 km2). Following the review, a total of 18 claims were staked to ensure additional coverage in strategic areas and are still pending. The main targets on the Property include the following and are shown in Figure 1 below: The Maizerest shear zone located at the contact between the Glandelet Formation (sediments) and the Vanier-Dalet-Poirier Group (volcanics). The contact was also defined as an exploration target by the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (\"MERN\"). A grab sample located close to the contact assayed 10.2 g/t Au. The Vanier-Dalet-Poirier Group, which is made of andesitic rocks and felsic tuffs. The group includes, west of the Property, the Sleeping Giant mine, operated by Abcourt Mines. The mine has a reserve estimate dating 2018 that shows measured and indicated resource of 486,500 tons @ 11.20 g/t Au (Abcourt, 2018). The Group also hosts, east of the Property, the Osborne-Bell gold resource of 2,587,000 tons @ 6.13 g/t owned by Osisko Mining (Osisko, 2018). The Picadilly showing is located in this Group, north of the Property, and assayed 10.25 g/t over 1m and also 1.08 g/t over 1m. Some more showings are hosted in that Group and are located on the Property: Mon-D'Or-Themine (1 g/t over 1.0m); Sondage KC-86-9 (3.82 g/t Au (+- Zn and Cu) over 0.2m) and Q-27-KC-86-7 (0.65% Zn + 0.11% Cu over 0.97m).
